2 years, 7 months and 10 days is my predicted wait time. Since late January, that number has increased by a month... mostly due to the recent referral numbers. Then again, who really knows? Rumor has it that only 2, maybe 3 days have been matched. Add another month on... seriously, each month just brings more depressing news of how few matches were made. Is this a purposeful slow down? Is there some grand conspiracy? Are they really just out of babies?
Although it is depressing, what are my alternatives? Domestic adoption is fraught even more pitfalls and may contain a wait just as long. Switching to another country would be cost-prohibitive... so I sit and wait.
All in all, I need to get back to work. All this vacation time gives me too much temptation to sit around and ponder.

Thanks for the link!
This whole thing is really really depressing. I'll be 43 by the time I get a referral at this rate (or close to it anyway). You know what I say? What goes up MUST come down...so eventually this tide will turn.
I hear ya...wish I could be the fount of encouragement but at least we're all in it with great company.
